Bill Dyson Email & Phone Number

Bill Dyson is a professional in their field. Colleagues describe them as "Bill was a senior member of the team and so responsible for driving the automation improvements strategy for our product and giving us confidence in our product releases. His tenacity in this area led to a 600% increase in regression tests being executed every day keeping developers and testers honest and helping the team move forward quicker. He is passionate about agile software development and led the path towards continuous integration and delivery through Jenkins, streamlining the process and automating it to reduce the test & build time by 80%! This allowed the team to focus on delivering functionality rather than shortening the development lifecycle to deal with the overheads that each build or patch cost them prior to Bill's improvements. A key part of why Bill was so effective in the team was his ability to work autonomously and contribute to the team’s success on a regular basis, often having to learn new skills quickly which showed his dynamism. He is always in good humour and was a very collaborative team member in work and sociable outside it. I really hope we can work together again in the future!" and "I got an opportunity to work with Bill Dyson between 2021-2023 on Cisco Elastic Services Controller product. He was responsible for regression automation, triaging and image signing. He had a passion to automate things that will increase teams productivity. He is very particular about product quality, thus will always keep an eye on the new commits made by fellow team members to make sure none of those changes breaks the working product. Once a defect is uncovered, even if the defect occurs only in a corner case scenario, he would make sure the defect is fixed and verified, and never allowed to move to un-reproducible state. Bill is great at following-up on items and making sure nothing is dropped. His knowledge spread across various areas like OpenStack, VMware, Java, Python, Shell Scripting, Jenkins, DevOps, VNF/CNF and ETSI. He would be a excellent addition to any high performing QA/DevOps team."
